3000 UDS students begin practical training


Professor Haruna Yakubu, Vice-Chancellor of the University for Development Studies (UDS) in Tamale, has appealed to Government and other stakeholders to support the University financially to maintain its field practicals programme.

He said with their limited resources, inadequate funding has been a major challenge facing the University in the implementation of the field programme and this is in addition to the increase in the student in-take.

Prof Yakubu made the appeal at the opening session of the 2013 Third Trimister Field Practical Programme (TTFPP) in Sunyani on Monday where 3,333 Level 100 students were dispatched to 33 communities in 10 districts in the Brong-Ahafo Region.

He said TTFPP was an integral part of the university’s curriculum to ensure that both students and staff work closely with rural and deprived communities with the focus on enhancing the poverty reduction programme. read more at
